98 ZL440 Clutching

[JustinMan43]

Morning guys, picked up a 98 440 last year but didn’t do much more than get it running. Jack shaft bearing went on it last week so starting to go through it more thorough.

I pulled the primary apart last night and the weights arms were in brutal shape. To the point where I’m going to have to replace them instead of just the bushings inside.

I am not familiar with Cats at all, can I use Polaris weight arms and pins for this? What are some good websites or kits I should be looking at for parts? It has 46.5 g weights in it right now.

Here is a pic of the old girl. Might try to throw a few “build” pics up later.

If anyone has any suggestions on how to fix the old hinging hoods too that would be great. The three tabs on bottom of the hood are snapped off. Was going to use 18ga plate and rivets to rig something up.

You may consider a power bloc clutch for that sled.

Holy crap the Power bloc have gone up in price, may not be worth it now?

I was able source a pin and bushing kit. It is currently held up at the border but I'm hoping this gets me going again.

You may want to take a look at the spider for wear also. If the pin and bushings were loose the weight most likely gouged the spider.
